| The flying artillery | 100% | |
| Requirement : first you need a big helicopter , you need a friendly drived tank ( not you driving it . the friendly faction soldier ) . 1st step : deliver the tank in friendly outpost & wait until one of them take the tank ( best vehicle for this : diplomat , iron mountain , stateman , tempered hammer , Anti tank / air vehicle ) 2nd step : when they take the tank / other armed land vehicle you like , winch it . ( best thing the helicopter for winch , hit , drop & fly : Liberator , condor / jade wind , ambassador / warsong attack , Anaconda & castro series ) 3rd step : test the artillery by hit & fly over test on : piloted helicopter ( tank is innacurrate aganist heli . so to face them use SAM / stateman ) , drived tank , target in biggest moutain , etc . Note : the flying artillery also usefull for taking outpost , when close in enemy outpost drop off the tank . Note 2 : the tank can't aim target in land due turret , only way to help the turret aim the target is get closer on target Note 3 : if the tank aim your helicopter , thats mean the tank notice their rival's helicopter . the tank is usefull to detect another of their rival heli | ||

| Afraid facing the diplomat / iron mountain ???? | 100% | |
| The diplomat is strongest tank in merc 2 , while the iron mountain is second one . compare to other tank , these tanks can takeout any tank with 1 shot ( while using diplomat / iron mountain vs another diplomat / iron mountain itself require 2 shot ) . there a ways to facing them : method 1 : disguise disguise is tank primary weakness , get closer to the strongest tank , quickly kill the gunner & jack the tank ( diplomat & iron mountain is very hard to jack ) ( be carefull if the area filled with diplomat / iron mountain ) method 2 : airstrike using the AT missile will not inflict serious damage , use stronger airstrikes ( bombing run , fuel air bomb / MOAB & Nukes ) if you use normal power airstrike , require 2 airstrike = 1 diplomat / iron mountain kill | ||

| Defeating Carmona: | 67% | |
| When Carmona's men are attacking the PMC, after you destroy the tanks, set a charge of C4 on the gates closer to the mansion, and detonate it. It should drop straight down and block the road leading out of the compound. Enter the mansion, and trigger the intermission sequence. When you exit the building, the road leading out of the compound will still be blocked. Kill Carmona's bodyguards, and his jeep should be stuck in the rubble of the archway. Kill him, and snap the picture for easy verification of Carmona. When completing the mission on the oil rig in the water behind the PMC, kill Blanco and take his weapon, the hunting pistol. The hunting pistol is a very powerful weapon, often killing enemies in one shot. With the hunting pistol in your possession, continue through the "Finding Solano" mission. After the encounter with Carmona inside the Villa, he will run in a straight line directly away from you, giving you a clear shot at his back. If you miss on the first shot, he has a good bit of a jog until he reaches his jeep, giving you plenty of time to gun him down. | ||

| Stealing fuel without upsetting a faction: | 60% | |
| This is most useful when used with factions who are already hostile (to keep them from shooting you down), but can also be used to keep friendly factions from becoming upset with you. Get one of the helicopters used by the faction you want to steal from (or one of its allies), and allow your disguise to finish. Fly to the location of the fuel you want to get, and lower your winch. Grab the fuel tank, and lift off before the enemy soldiers recognize you, then fly to a secure location (either the PMC or a remote, open location). Once out of sight, call Ewan in for the pick-up. Note: Using a heavier helicopter is recommended, as the Rogue and Gunney class choppers are extremely difficult to control when carrying a heavy fuel tank. Also, there are at least half a dozen fuel tanks relatively close to the PMC, most of which are controlled by Universal Petroleum. Spending the fuel for an Ambassador Gunship (an Allied helicopter, who are allies with UP) is well worth it if you are going to use your PMC as a fuel depot. Use the following trick to steal fuel from a friendly faction without having to worry about affecting their status towards you. Go to an outpost that has fuel tanks, and tag them. Then, call in Ewan for the extraction. If a soldier happens to call in a report about your hostile act, go inside the outpost to cancel the call. By doing this you will get fuel and the faction will still be friendly with you. This trick requires a fast vehicle (for example, a sports motorcycle). Find an outpost that has a fuel tank. Look for an easy way out before you attempt to steal the fuel. Once your vehicle is positioned facing the fast exit, and after making sure no one sees you, tag the fuel tank, and call Ewan for extraction. Run to your vehicle, and drive as fast as you can until you are far enough from the place so that no one can report you. Note: This also works with a helicopter as your vehicle when you are in the jungle area, but requires more time because you must wait a few seconds before you can lift off. | ||

| Billboard Fun: | 50% | |
| After you have unlocked the P.L.A.V. faction and hopefully a gunship (such as a Castro V Attack chopper or an Anaconda from the pirates) with rockets, I would recommend going to the city of Merida and shooting the billboards. You earn a tiny bit of cash (5k), but if you shoot enough of them you begin to unlock more shop items from the P.L.A.V. I also noted getting a few things from the U.P mercs in their city. It only takes 1 rocket from a gunship to destroy those pesky billboards. Again, I would highly recommend an Anaconda from the pirates, they have like 80 rockets, and its easy to unlock from pirates after a few outpost captures and doing those delivery missions. | ||

| Easy transport and smuggling missions: | 50% | |
| Note: This trick only works after you have obtained a helicopter pilot and the winch ability. When on a transport or smuggling contract that relies on you not tipping the vehicle and losing the objects inside, summon a helicopter as close to the vehicle as possible before entering the mission assigned vehicle. Then, enter the mission vehicle, and the timer should start. Get back out, and take off in your helicopter. Use the winch to grab the mission vehicle, and gain as much altitude as possible. If you fly relatively level, you will not lose anything. However, if you bank even slightly to get around obstacles, losses will be minimal as long as you do not actually bank the copter in a hard turn. The vehicle will get tossed around, making the copter harder to fly but if you travel directly to the drop-off point from the beginning, it will keep its cargo. This helps you avoid nearly all ground forces. All you have to worry about are the anti-air guns and other helicopters. If worst comes to worst, simply drop the vehicle after coming down to about 20 feet or less. You will have already have saved enough time to hijack another helicopter. | ||

| Easy money | 33% | |
| After completing the first UP mission and recruiting Ewan, talk to him about the Winch challenge. After completing level 3 on this challenge, bet the maximum amount of money. Even though you have already done this, the height does not raise. Therefore you can continue betting at the maximum amount. After approximately four times (depending on how much you start with), you should have about $7.0 million. Continue from here to get the maximum wager amount to $5.0 million (when you have about $14.0 million in funds). Repeat this as many times as desired. Additionally, when you get the maximum betting level on the Winch challenge, keep going until you get to approximately $100 million. The minimum bet will now also be $5 million. If you continue from there, the minimum will actually grow higher than the maximum and allow for even more money. However, once the minimum goes beyond $5 million, there is no way you can raise or lower the bet because it is higher than the maximum, but it is still the minimum. Note: To save time in the Winch challenge, use stackable items from outside of your stronghold. For example, try the gas canisters across the road (or for something less volatile, use the shipping containers directly across the lake behind your house). Items used from outside of your stronghold stay in the exact location you put them until you quit your game, giving you a prepared stack height the next time around. Two or three attempts may be required to gather the items, but it is well worth it, as once done it requires only seconds to win the challenge. | ||
